Our best and worse Loan players

COG and Trippier are right up there in the best. Worst? Nobody mentioned Tony Bedaux yet, wtf was that loan about?

 

Siggi Johnnson and O'Grady,both from S6

 

Best: O'Grady

Worst: Arismendi

 

Leon Knight has to be the worst

 

Worst: Deon Burton - absolutely wasn't arsed. Special mentions go to Naylor, Don Goodman and Phil Gray.
Best: Of the ones we didn't sign, probably Chopra. I remember Neil Whitworth looking good but that may be my memory.

I thought Lee Glover was OK, certainly doesn't deserve to be included in the "worst" lists. I want to put Piri and Fumaca in the list but I honestly can't remember seeing either.

And why was Dino Connelly called "Dino" and not "Deano"?

 

Best - COG, Redders, Trippier, Curtis.

Worst - Naylor (by a mile), Burton, Goodman, Bedeau, and 90% of the loans used by Robins and Hillcroft.

 

I actually thought Kane was a good player, I was disappointed at the time that we didn't make an offer to keep him

 

Viveash scored at Selhurst Park on debut, bless him.

Agree on Kane. Thought he was a tidy laiker.

 

Our record with loans is awful which is why I never get too excited them, whatever their reputation, there's a reason their parent clubs are allowing them to leave. We've had far too many bad ones to list.

O'Grady's attitude when he joined was fantastic though, on the few occasions he's spoken in the media it's, "we this" "us that", which is exactly what you want. There's still time for Pedersen to show he's got the ability, you'd think he'd be going all out to impress and get a move to a Premier League or top end Championship club but the jury's still out on him. I still think Danny Rose would have scored more goals than any of our strikers so far if he'd had the starts - sometimes players are best when they are "raw" as opposed to having all their instinctive abilities coached out of them.

 

Oh and was Ferenczi just a loan or was he a loan that became permanent? I don't think he did too badly to be honest, think it was the 07/08 season when he joined with his mate and we pretty close to going down that year but those two ground out some unlikely wins. They were amazing in the Stoke away game that was live on Sky.

 

Honourable mention to siggi johnson - great player

 

Deon Burton gets my vote for worse loan signing by a mile.

 

Can recall chris lumsden and brian mc'cord being excellent as loan players then we signed em permanent and there legs dropped off, in lumsdens case on wellington street

 

Colin Hoyle and Dean Connolly weren't loan signings they were permanent

 

Siggi Jonnson was class and one of the best players I have seen in a reds shirt.

 

Nouble had a great game away at Blackpool when we drew 1-1.

 

Istvan Ferenczi and Peter Rajczi.

 

Viveash was so one footed he even headed the ball left footedly...

 

Worst - Pirri, Alan Moore, Neil Maddison, Rigters, Tony Warner, Deon Burton, Leon Knight

Best - Redfearn, Curtis and Chopra

 

Best Nardiello, Curtis, Chopra and sSggi Jonnson

Worst, Rigters, Burton, Naylor and most of the buggers that Hill brought in !!
